About
We are delighted to offer for sale this substantial four double bedroom detached family home, occupying an attractive position within the highly regarded Buckinghamshire village of Stewkley.
Offering approximately 1,950 sq. Ft.
Of accommodation including the double garage, the property has been extensively improved by the current owners, with a refitted kitchen and utility room, refitted bathroom and en-suite, and a particularly versatile ground floor layout.
Additional benefits include driveway parking and a substantial plot, with excellent potential to extend (sttp). Viewing is highly recommended.
Location: Stewkley is a highly regarded Buckinghamshire village surrounded by attractive countryside yet conveniently positioned for access to Leighton Buzzard, Milton Keynes and Aylesbury.
The village has a strong community feel with local amenities and schooling, while Leighton Buzzard provides a wider range of shopping, leisure and transport facilities together with its mainline railway station and direct services into London Euston.
Ground Floor: The property opens into a generous and welcoming entrance hall, which immediately gives a sense of the proportions found throughout the house.
The flooring here has been upgraded with attractive tiling, while the internal doors throughout the ground floor have also been replaced.
Stairs rise to the first floor and there is useful built-in storage, with access provided to the lounge, kitchen and cloakroom/WC. The lounge is a superbly proportioned main reception room.
The original hallway flooring has been carefully repurposed here to create an attractive wood parquet floor, giving the room considerable warmth and character.
A wide front window provides plenty of natural light, while sliding doors open directly onto the rear garden. A feature fireplace with wood burning stove provides a natural focal point to the room.
Positioned conveniently between the lounge and kitchen is the dining room, comfortably capable of accommodating a substantial dining table and offering another direct connection with the garden through sliding doors.
This gives the house excellent flexibility for both everyday family life and entertaining. The refitted kitchen has been finished in a clean contemporary style.
An extensive range of fitted cabinetry provides excellent storage together with generous work surfaces and a range of integrated appliances.
Its position at the centre of the rear accommodation allows the kitchen to connect naturally with both the dining room and family room.
The impressive family room, extending to approximately 22'3", provides an exceptionally versatile additional reception space.
Finished with practical lvt flooring and benefitting from sliding doors to the garden, this lengthy room could work equally well as an informal sitting room, children's room, games room or combination of uses.
A separate utility room has also been refitted, providing valuable additional storage and laundry facilities away from the main kitchen.
First Floor: The spacious first floor landing provides access to four double bedrooms, the family bathroom and loft space.
The master bedroom is a particularly generous room providing ample space for a substantial range of bedroom furniture.
Built-in wardrobes provide useful storage, while the adjoining refitted en-suite has been upgraded in a smart contemporary style.
The remaining three bedrooms are all well-proportioned doubles, making this an especially practical layout for a larger family.
Bedroom two measures approximately 11'7" x 9'0", bedroom three approximately 10'8" x 9'8" and bedroom four approximately 7'7" x 11'0".
Completing the first floor is the refitted family bathroom, finished with a modern white suite including a panelled bath with shower facilities, WC and wash hand basin.
Outside: The property enjoys established gardens to both the front and rear.
To the front, a block paved driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to the integral double garage, while the remainder of the frontage is softened by lawn and established planting.
The double garage provides excellent parking and storage space and also offers internal access to the house.
The generous and mature garden provides an excellent setting for a family home of this size.
A substantial paved terrace immediately adjoining the property creates plenty of room for outdoor dining and entertaining, beyond which the garden is predominantly laid to lawn with established trees, shrubs and planting providing an attractive backdrop and a good degree of screening.
